Darwin Got It Wrong
On November 24, 1859, English naturalist Charles Darwin dropped a bombshell with “The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life,” a title so long you’d need a breather halfway through. This pivotal work in scientific history marked a dubious milestone: from then on, humanity had a hefty science book to wave around whenever it wanted to claim we’re evolving for the better. Spoiler alert: we’re not. We’re about as evolving as a rock stuck in a time loop, repeating the same blunders ad nauseam. Ever heard the one about doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results? Sounds a bit like the definition of madness, doesn’t it? While laughing at our so-called wisdom, this blog dives into culture, history, and philosophy with a critical and sarcastic lens. It’s not just about reading recommendations, theater, and movies for entertainment. My goal? To peel back the layers of human inconsistencies with a grin. We’re not sapiens or habilis; we’re simply erectus: imperfect, ironic, forever searching for meaning. Through creative stories and life lessons, “Homo Erectus” becomes a fun, provocative journey into the human mind. This learning experience doesn’t just inform; it makes you think, smile, and maybe, just maybe, question our true nature.
